Case Reference Number IRQ0623078

 

Dear Mr Nicholson

Further to our email of 6 April 2016, we are now in a position to respond
to your request under the terms of the Freedom of Information Act 2000
(FOIA).
 
Please see attached two documents comprising the information from case
references FS50079619 and FS50124671. The information relating to
FS50071451 and FS50070469 will be sent attached to a second email due the
limitation on the size of attachments.
 
You will see that some House of Commons staff names have been redacted.
This is to protect their identities in accordance with section 40(2) of
FOIA by virtue of section 40 (3) (a) (i). This exemption relates to
personal information.
 
Section 40(2) states:
 
(2)Any information to which a request for information relates is also
exempt information if—
(a) it constitutes personal data which do not fall within subsection (1),
and
(b) either the first or the second condition below is satisfied.
(3)The first condition is—
(a )in a case where the information falls within any of paragraphs (a) to
(d) of the definition of “data” in section 1(1) of the Data Protection Act
1998, that the disclosure of the information to a member of the public
otherwise than under this Act would contravene—
 

 1. any of the data protection principles,

 
We consider that the disclosure of this personal data would not be within
the reasonable expectations of these individuals and therefore would
breach the first data protection principle which requires personal data to
be processed fairly and lawfully.
 
 
We can confirm that no other information has been withheld and hope that
this response is of assistance to you.
 
Yours sincerely
